Review
"Cohn-Sherbok has done a service for those of us needing short biographies of 50 important figures in our tradition. . . . It is a wonderful text that can be used to complement introductory books to Judaism."-"Jewish Book World ..."each entry contains an appropriate, brief summary of the life of the individual and his writings, along with a very brief list of references. The author's selections are exclusively male.."-" Jewish Book Council, Vol. 15, No. 2
Synopsis
This panoramic survey provides a first point of entry into the fascinating richness and complexity of the Jewish philosophical, theological and Kabbalistic tradition. Beginning in the first century with the Hellenistic philosopher Philo, Fifty Key Jewish Thinkers traces the major intellectual events of the last two thousand years, including the growth of Medieval Jewish philosophy, the early modern mystics, the radicals, the Hasidic leaders, the Enlightenment and secular and religious Zionism. From Maimonides to Martin Buber, and from Baruch Spinoza to Elie Wiesel, this volume carries the standard found in Fifty Key Contemporary Thinkers (Routledge, 1994) and is ideally suited for anyone interested in Jewish thought or history.
